30 JULY 2005 - WILLIAMS, ARIZONA, USA: Spurs on cowboy's boots at the Arizona Cowpunchers' Reunion Rodeo, the largest amateur rodeo in Arizona, in Williams, AZ, July 30. Professional rodeo cowboys cannot participate in the rodeo. Only working ranch cowboys and their families can participate in the rodeo, which features sports more geared to ranch life, like "wild cow milking" than pro rodeos, which feature bull riding. Williams, a small ranching town in northern Arizona and about an hour from the south entrance to the Grand Canyon National Park, has reinvented itself as a tourist destination. The town draws tourists going to the park and tourists who want to experience American western lifestyle. The town hosts the largest amateur rodeo in Arizona drawing contestants and spectators from across the state. PHOTO BY JACK KURTZ
